HunterFamiliaractive, summon
Umbra calls two Familiars into the fight to attack alongside her. The summons last 30 s and the ability has a 30 s cooldown.
Role: a back-line ranged piece with steady damage whose summons clog the board, soak hits and buy time for your carries. A handy mid-game pick that covers three synergies at once — Dragon, Egersis and Hunter.

Synergies
Synergy effect:
(3) At the start of combat, 3 allied dragons have 100 mana (if there are more than 3 allied dragons on the board, the bonus goes to the dragons starting from the left side).
(5) When combat begins, mana of all allies +100.
How to play
Dragon is a synergy about casting immediately: (3) gives three dragons full mana at the start of combat, so their skills go into the enemy right away, before any damage trade. The threshold is reached with mid-cost heroes in the mid game; place your dragons knowing the bonus is handed out from the left. (5) is a late build where the whole board gets starting mana, and it is especially strong with any heroes whose abilities decide the fight in the first seconds.
Synergy effect:
(3) All non-Egersis pieces on both sides receive the Plague effect: starting health −10%.
(6) All non-Egersis pieces on both sides receive the Plague effect: starting health −45%.
(9) All non-Egersis pieces on both sides receive the Plague effect: starting health −45%, and infected pieces additionally lose 5% of max health every 2 seconds (the reduction limit is calculated from starting health).
Egersis pieces do not appear in the piece shop at the start of the game. They can only be obtained by equipping the "Egersis Pact" gear or through the "Gamble Box" sacred relic.
How to play
Egersis weakens everyone who is not Egersis, including your own pieces, so the synergy is built as a core rather than an add-on. (3) already trims the enemy's health, (6) makes the Plague genuinely painful, and (9) adds constant health loss throughout the fight. There are many heroes at different costs, but because of the special way they are obtained, the build depends on whether the right gear or relic comes your way.
Synergy effect:
(3) When an allied Hunter performs a basic attack, there is a 50% chance that it is a guaranteed hit and reduces the target's armor by 5 for 5 seconds.
(6) When an allied Hunter performs a basic attack, there is an 80% chance that it is a guaranteed hit and reduces the target's armor by 8 for 10 seconds.
(9) Basic attacks of allied Hunters knock the target back and launch an additional attack.
Class trait: Hunters always prioritize attacking the enemy with the lowest health within their attack range.
Knockback: forces the enemy to retreat to the cell opposite to its current facing direction; it can be dispelled.
The effects of multiple tiers are active at the same time: activating a higher tier does not deactivate a lower one.
How to play
Hunters are a ranged physical damage class: from (3) their attacks often become guaranteed hits that strip the target's armor, and (6) makes this almost constant, so the enemy front loses its protection quickly. The class is wide and cheap: (3) comes together in the first rounds, (6) in the mid game, and (9) with knockback and extra attacks is a rare late-game option. Hunters need a sturdy front line in front of them, but thanks to their targeting trait they finish off the weakest enemies on their own.
Lore
hero story
I
It had just rained on the grassland. Dew hung on the tips of the blades, and the air smelled of grass.
Digon's hoof avoided the two small flowers as she crossed the wet meadow to a bush.
The butterflies and bees fluttered through the bushes, and the breeze rustled the low shrubs.
Digon had some doubts. Nature should be the most familiar thing to her, but now it seemed like there was a thin veil between them.
Something was not right, and Digon was a little annoyed. She flicked her hoof at the flowers, and the startled insects scattered and fled. Two butterflies fluttered up and down around Digon, and one even landed on her dragon horn.
She shook her head. After the two butterflies were startled away, she slowly walked into the bushes - she vaguely remembered that this was where she used to come. There was a small lake ahead, where the water was exceptionally clear.
She stepped through the bush that looked like it was shrouded in a layer of mist. The deeper Digon went into the forest, the more the oddity and unease in her heart became apparent.
Finally she saw the lake that she remembered. Digon went up to see herself in the water, as she always did when she admired her beautiful horns.
The Digon in the water was still beautiful, glowing with the aura of the Holy Spirit. Just as Digon was breathing a sigh of relief, the flesh on her face in the water suddenly began to fall off, and the smell of decay came out of her body.
So, this is a dream. Am I dead?
II
Waking up from her dream, Digon looked down and stared at the aura of death surrounding her body.
Her eyes were filled with conflicting and complex emotions, seemingly wistful and unbelieving.
Until her eyes began to gradually glow red, the energy around her body began to roll over and overflow.
Digon madly destroyed everything around her: her beloved home, her beloved grassland - everything was reduced to pieces by the reckless outpouring of her power.
Countless animals fled the grassland after sensing Digon's rage, heading straight for the tundra - there seemed to be something Digon didn't want to face. It took three days for her terrifying power to be unleashed before it was stopped by the Frostblaze Dragon who arrived on the scene.
Looking at the devastated grassland, Digon could not even believe that this was her own doing. She asked the Frostblaze Dragon to freeze her. She would rather sleep in the ice, rather than facing herself like this.
But Bayrison refused.
